While my Department does not have a specific scheme for the restoration of vintage machinery, the Arts and Culture Capital Scheme operated by my Department may include a contribution towards equipment or machinery within an overall project that fulfils the criteria of the scheme.  I expect to re-open this scheme for new applications later in the year.
